Résumé:
"Camera" est le fruit d'une collaboration entre l'architecte Chang Yung Ho, le vidéaste Yang Fudong et l'artiste multimédia Wang Jian Wei deux artistes contemporains chinois. Au travers du rapport de l'architecture et de la vidéo, l’exposition du MAMVP voudrait encourager le spectateur à expérimenter de nouvelles formes de présentation de l'image dans l'espace. Se fondant sur la métaphore de la “ camera ” en tant que chambre ou appareil, Chang Yung Ho a conçu quatre modules architecturaux, salles de projection, dans lesquelles les visiteurs regardent et sont regardés. À chaque espace correspond une marque d'appareil photographique -Polaroid, Leica, Nikon, et Seagull- faisant ainsi référence à différentes zones géographiques - respectivement les Etats-Unis, l'Allemagne, le Japon et la Chine. Pour chaque module, l'architecte a travaillé avec des matériaux différents : la tôle pour Leica, le plexiglas transparent pour Polaroid, le bois, le métal et les miroirs pour Nikon et le papier de riz pour Seagull. Les œuvres vidéo inédites de Yang Fudong et Wang Jian Wei ont été conçues spécialement pour les modules dans lesquels elles sont projetées. Ces deux artistes vivant à Shangaï et à Pékin, s'inspirent des transformations de la société chinoise contemporaine. Entretiens avec Hans-Ulrich Obrist. Textes de Hou Hanru, Laurent Gutierrez, Valérie Portefaix, Michel Nuridsany, Charles Merewether.

Résumé:
Since the mid 1970s Roman Signer has examined the forces of the elements – air, fire, earth and water – in a combination of performance (documented by photography and video) and sculpture (the physical remains of his acts). With a Dadaist love for the absurd, his artworks include Race (1981), in which the artist races a rocket across a field (hopelessly behind from the outset, the artist loses by nearly the entire length); Action at Hotel Weissbad (1992), in which an ordinary table is shot out a hotel window, the resulting photographs showing a table flying incongruously over a sleepy Swiss village; Power of Rain (1974), in which rainwater gathers slowly in a funnel until its force shatters a block of plaster; and Bicycle with Rockets (1991), the photographs of which show a fiery bicycle flying through the gallery like a demon comet. Often Signer will exhibit in the gallery the remains of an event not witnessed by the public, such as four empty barrels and a violently splattered wall, the remains of an explosion of paint in the gallery space (Portrait Gallery, 1993), or four sand piles with perfectly round craters on each, the neat result of four simultaneous explosions at their peaks (Cones of Sand, 1988). Roman Signer’s work has been exhibited at major venues across Europe and North America, as well as important international exhibitions such as Documenta 8 (1987), Skulptur Projekte in Munster (1997) and the 48th Venice Biennale (1999), in which he represented Switzerland.

Résumé:
This first comprehensive publication on the influential contemporary artist focuses on the experimental nature of Andrea Zittel's signature objects, inhabitable sculptures, and other projects. In her work as an artist, Zittel investigates domestic and urban life in Western societies. Exploring the various aspects of living, the artist designs her own household settings to serve as a test case for her experimental living structures. Her work has provoked debates about the changed meaning of domestic and collective space and the possibilities for new adaptations to urban conditions today. "Andrea Zittel: critical space" includes nearly two hundred reproductions of Zittel's works of art, many of which are published here for the first time. The book includes over one hundred sculptures and drawings, documentation of early work, and recent site-specific work in the Mojave desert of California. With essays that touch upon urbanism, architecture, design, and consumer culture, this catalog offers an extensive analysis of Zittel's contribution to contemporary trends in art and architecture.

Résumé:
«Territoires urbains» présente le travail photographique de six artistes qui ont fait de la ville en perpétuel changement leur sujet. À travers une vaste gamme d'intérêts et d'approches, chaque artiste propose une réponse à la question suivante : qu'est-ce-que la photographie documentaire au 21e siècle? Pour cette génération de photographes, la ville n'est pas le sujet de leur enquête, mais plutôt le contexte. Pour ces artistes, la ville évoque les aspects sociaux, politiques et judiciaires de la société, tout en étant un endroit de travail, d'échange et de divertissement. Les artistes expriment ainsi leurs travaux un point de vue particulier sur la réalité urbaine, qu'il s'agisse du territoire physique ou de l'espace social. Artistes participants : Christian Barré, Martin Désilets, Isabelle Hayeur, Emmanuelle Léonard, Pavel Pavlov et Myriam Yates. L'essai est accompagné de textes d'artistes.

Résumé:
The Bridge in Tadashi Kawamata's Bridge and Archives is a long, functional bridge installation that extends between the exhibition galleries of the Museum Schloss Moyland and the castle itself. It expresses the artist's own interpretation of the particular character of the location, which houses the world's largest collection of works by Joseph Beuys and also the Joseph Beuys Archive--hence the Archive in the title. The bridge places the viewer at the center of two poles of art and represents an incongruous addition to the romantic castle ensemble. Demonstrating how the artistic work of Kawamata stands on the threshold between functional everyday object and autonomous work of art, between emergence and transience, between the individual and society, the bridge also reveals points of contact between the art of Beuys and Kawamata's own process-based and socially relevant work. Japanese artist Tadashi Kawamata has collaborated since 1986 with Dutch photographer Leo van der Kleij, who documents the artist's work in photographs.
